But So Warm Here

Dunnnnnnnnn (music) ……………………
these are what I made for my friends for this Christmas!



















One day,
I was surfing on the internet and saw that someone made chocolate as a gift to new born baby.
I was delighted and thought of that—
this shall be a very good idea to send my friends chocolates this Christmas.
What a pity that Littlehands is not good in cooking and desert making,
so I have bought this ready-made chocolate nuggets for DIY the gift.
However, it is somehow dangerous to put bare chocolate nuggets into the envelope and send them out;
I am afraid all the chocolates melted during several shipping days to overseas countries.
Then, I have decided to wrap a box to hold the chocolates,
so that they would have a better place and better appearance when they arrive to the recipients.
I added the paper ornaments I found on bookscrapping magazine
and some decorations made by me with paper punches,
then my own brand “HimMes” chocolates is born.
Ha, ha, ha,
Littlehands’ chocolate factory has been well done for this order before the Christmas
and its production line would probably be suspended until the next memorable occasion!
I really wish my DIY chocolates bring you,
my dearest friends,
a warm, blissful and unforgettable Christmas,





and wish all the one reading my blog a Merry and Delightful Christmas; and
all the one in the world a Happy New Year!

It's Cold Outside

Preparing Christmas Gifts
















I am preparing Christmas gifts to my friends who have given me lots of support during the year.
Almost every year,
I have a thought that Christmas time is the best time to thank all the ones who have been kind to me;
so even in busy days,
I still think of preparing Christmas gifts or cards to my friends, sometimes just an e-card though.
This year is a bit different,
I met many new friends whom have left me messages, emails, letters, presents, surprises and so on which made me feel happy all the times.
So, this year is a busy year to me,
because I have to be hurry up to prepare DIY gifts for them.
Hey, this is what I made for them,
See~~















Oh, can't see the whole stuff?!
Yes, it is because I want to keep it secret until my friends have received them.
This is in fact of my own brand—
HimMes.
Why not Hermes?
Oh, I am sorry that I am afraid I can't afford to send gifts from our famous Hermes to all of the best friends;
so I made “HimMes” instead.
HimMes actually means (definition by Littlehands)--
"Him"(=Jesus Christ) + "Me"(=you, the recipient) + "s"(=many blessings),
so I think the brand tells my friend that our Lord is to be with you with so many blessings in all the days around the year, a good wish indeed.
Do you think my DIY brand is better than the real famous brand, my friends?
Ha, ha, ha~~~~
I will certainly let you know the secret present around Christmas times,
So stay tuned.
